I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at TikTok (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2023
Interview
2 rounds coding 1 round hiring manager. Basic leetcode coding question but hiring manager is little bit annoying. He challenged all my background and it was suppose to be a system design round but he didn't ask me any technical stuffs. Why not reject me directly before I passed all coding round and all the interviews were midnight in US
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at TikTok
Interview
This is my first time writing a review for an interview, and it's truly been such a frustrating and disappointing experience. I completed two rounds of coding interviews, addressing a total of three coding questions, and successfully passed all test cases for each one. I was very confident in my ability to pass the interview. However, I was surprised to receive a (no-reply) rejection email with no opportunity for further communication, not even feedback on my performance.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
3 very classic LeetCode medium difficulty problems.
Made me speak in chinese which isnt my strong suit. So it was an immediate turn off for me. Probably be better for those more fluent in chinese. They had critical feedbacks of their intenal teams as well. Which probably points to a bad culture
